3-5-01We made bear faces out of brown construction paper. I made sure to cut out perfect circles, a large one for the head, half-circles for the ears, smaller circles for the eyes and pupils and so on. Basically, I made sure that all the pieces were either circles or another shape that they could identify. I thought they would all come out looking the same, but they didn't. The kids really loved making their bear faces and having them displayed. We topped off the activity with gummy bears.
3-5-01Cinnamon Bears I cut out a teddy bear shape and added a face with a black marker. The children used glue sticks to rub glue all over the bodies, and shook cinnamon all over the bodies. I then had them smell their own bears. Make sure you have either newspaper or a paper plate under the bears to keep the cinnamon from going all over the place when shaking the excess off.
2-22-01"Bare Prints" This activity is simple, but fun. We place a large section of white butcher type paper on the floor and tape it down. With assistance, the children take turns stepping into plastic dishes with paint in them and walking across the paper. As we make our "bare (bear) prints, we growl and snarl like a bear. I take the large sheet of paper and line the wall leading to the oneness area where we have teddy bears and bear stories set up.
2-12-01Using an old sheet from home, cut squares large enough to make a small blanket for a teddy bear. Allow your toddlers to paint designs on their blankets or use bingo dabbers to decorate. The children are so proud of the blankets they designed! You may want to allow them to bring their bears to school and have a party.
